Woman invents ‘assistant glasses’ for visually impaired

A 25-year-old Turkish woman has invented special glasses, named "assistant glasses," that help visually impaired people to "recognize" people or "identify" objects.

Graduated from the U.S. Brown College, Melis Gökalp, who is working in an international digital health systems company, had written the software of the assistant glasses between 2019 and 2021.
